Edited to Add: I have my hands on a few more copies, so I’m going to up the ante here to THREE copies. I’ll give away copies to three readers and I’ll get them in the mail so guys get them no later than the end of this next week.
It’s become a tradition to give away my very first copy of my HEAT books, and since I got a couple in the mail yesterday, I’ll give the following copy away
Don’t screech at me when you get the book and it doesn’t look quite as pretty and shiny as it does on screen. I’ll lament that fact right along with you. I don’t like the paper quality of HEAT covers at all. I’m a total paper snob. Particularly since hubby’s company makes the really nice high quality SHINY stuff like what comes on the Samhain covers. I don’t even like the actual paper the pages are printed with. It’s sorta cheap feeling, and if you’ve ever read a HEAT book, you know where I’m coming from.
Anyway off my tangent :sumo: Here are the rules and blah blah associated with this giveaway. Today is Friday :banana: I want to mail this puppy on MONDAY because dude, I have lots of other stuff to mail because my post office sucks ass and they are constantly losing crap, so I have replacement packages to mail and I need to get them out and well if I wait any longer, you won’t be getting Sweet Persuasion early at all, which is the whole point of this contest.
So if you enter this contest, be prepared to come back on Sunday or even early Monday morning to see if you won. I won’t track you down. You have until then to claim the book and if you don’t I’ll draw another winner and I’ll do this until someone comes forward quickly.
I’ll ship priority so you’ll have the book in hand no later than the end of next week. Sound fair?
Okay, now to the good stuff. Just tell me WHY you want this book early and you’ll be entered to win it.
Have a great weekend!
I would like the book because YOU wrote it! And it would round out my Maya collection nicely.
hugs
molli:cheer::eatchoc:
Ahh, I want the book because you’re the bomb. Have I sucked up enough? :cheer:
Seriously, I’ve read your series books and loved them and would love to get my hands on one of your single title novels.
Lynette
I want this book early because you do write wonderful books, and my last two weeks have been gosh awful! I can’t think of a better pick me up than a wonderful Maya book!
Sandi
I want it because I just read Sweet Surrender and am geeking for more. These books are Hott Hott Hott! Be sure to wear oven mitts while reading…..

I am willing to beg :pray:, bribe, :eatchoc:, perform feats of great finesse, :weee:, entertain, :guitar:, and yes, even hurt someone :shinkick: to be the first person to get this book.
I want this book early because I wubs you and I’m one of your favorite stalkers and I just want one autographed book from you – please.:worthy::kneel::rockthefuckon:
Because everything you write rocks. Duh.
And the sooner I get my greedy little hands on Damon, the better! hee hee
(points a gun) ‘Ok we can do this the easy way or the hard way. Give me the book and no one will get hurt.’
Well if that didn’t scare you into mailing me the book I guess I’ll have to follow contest rules. Gimme Gimme Gimme because I love your books, have them all, paper backs and ebooks, and I’m an aspiring erotic romance writer and I need to study the competion. Hahaha. You rock hard core! Lov ya!
I want the book early not only because it is written by Maya Banks (my favorite author) but I fell in love with Damon in Sweet Surrender and I’ve been waiting a very long time to read what happens to Damon and I’m trying to be very very patient but it’s hard and I would really love to read his story early!!:whoo:
Happy Friday! :)

I want to watch Serena get the fantasy and love she deserves.
I want it early because no matter how many books are sitting around my house, in my car or on my computer you are an author who I always want to read as soon as your book is in my hand :cheer:
Okay, I know it’s kind of late but I would like a copy of your book. The first book I ever read of yours was Brazen, and I have been hooked ever since. I love the characters you create and the *** is pretty HOT. Great Job!
Humm some good reasons there. I want it early because I LOVE LOVE LOVE your writing and I really want to read this one.
:worthy: Does begging help? :kneel:
:pray: I can’t think of anything else to say.

WendyK
Lol!!
Well, I’d love the book, but I have to say I’ve been high entertained just getting down to the book of the comment list. I love the graphics!! Too cute.
Why would I love the book? I’ve been working my way through all your books, and just now finished ‘Be with Me’ and the second Tycoon book-couldn’t wait for it to show up on my small town book shelf so I got it online as an ebook.
Another print book would be lovely for my keeper shelf.
:weee:
I want this book early so I can rub it in all my friends’ faces!
I really like your books. I started reading erotic books because of you. I read Colters’ Woman and have been hooked ever since. So I figure it is all your fault that I like this kind of book. So you had better hand this SUCKER over RIGHT NOW!!!!:pffftt:
Because you write Hot, Sexy, Heroes and Sexy, Kick-a$$ Heroines. :sweating: Your books, make me laugh,cry,cheer and sometimes want to kick the Hero’s butt when I think he is being dense. I love your books and I would brag to my online group that I got your book and they need to run out and get their copy of it! :worthy: :pray: :whoo:
You know, I really don’t know what to say after reading everybody else’s comments LOL but I would love to have this book at any time :)
Renee’
I agree with you, Renee! LMAO!
Maya-
I would love to have this book just because…:dunno:
Finished “be with me”…. WOW! I’m hooked. You rock.
Dani
I’m so excited to read this book! I keep reading the excerpt over and over so I would love to read this early.
I want this book because it’s a MAYA book! I’ve loved the whole series and can’t wait for more. I can’t bribe you with knitted love, but I might be able to find some ORANGE M&Ms! I think you like M&Ms, right? LOL
Or I could make you a banner or a web graphic or a business card or whatever you want!
:kneel:
Obviously I’m not afraid to beg and bribe!
*hugs*
Valerie
:hug:
:writersblock: well, after reading everyone else’s commments its really hard to beat … I can get down with the bribing but its all been said and done …
I would like this book early because I am curious about Damon … and that way i can read it before everyone else and post a book review on my blog that i have started for the romance books i read …
:pffftt:(hehehe see me casually throw that brib in, I can work it too) … or you could pick me because i am from texas and we stick together … hehehe :lol2:
Whether i get it or early or have to wait, I will read it, love it, and still blog about it just because your book is worth it!!!
* Ish happy to have her net back * Why I would like to have this book? Well one can never have too many books in their to be read list, and well I’ve only read three books, and the ones I have I really enjoyed!
I want your book because I don’t have any of your books in print yet! MY TBR stack is dwindling, and nothing is really chiming with me in there…..and this sounds like it will ring my bell.
I really want this book bad because I love your books and can not wait for them to come out! Plus I’m on bed rest and I can’t work at the moment so that means no book money for me. :violin: So if I could win this book I would be so happy because being stuck in a bed is no fun and I want some books to read. Did I mention that I think you are awesome? :pray:
If I get this book early, I’ll write you a really good review for Night Owl Romance. Of course, I always do because your books never disappoint but I don’t have this one! I’ll even put you ahead of all the other books that I have stacked up waiting for me to read them.
Terri
Oh my gosh – I would LOVE to have this book! Why? Because I know it’ll be a great read, and I’ve been a “book grinch” lately :X.
And also – the cover! It’s gorgeous! And I’m super excited about it :)
Good luck everyone, and thanks so much for having this giveaway!
:cheer: OMG!!! I would love to win this book because the first one in this series was so awesome so I know this one will be too. I Loved Damon in Sweet Surrender and can’t wait to learn more about him. Congrats on another release Maya..you so deserve it.
This will sound greedy, but I’m a book glutton and we ARE greedy. :D But I’d like this copy of Sweet Persuasion to go with my big ARC version.
You’re awesome, Maya. Thank you!
I would love to have this book ASAP because it’s Damon’s story! Sweet Surrender was a great book and I found Damon to be a very intriguing character.
I wanna win this book early because it gets harder and harder to wait as the date draws near. :)
I would like this book because Nalini Singh said you are awesome. And Nalini can’t be wrong, can’t she? ;)
Your little smileys are so cute, I shall use one.
:enguard:
I would like to have Sweet Persuasion early because I enjoy reading your books. I fell in love with Maya Banks, the author, when Seducing Simon first came out…and have continued to devour all of your other books. Your books are one’s that I read over and over, particularly Seducing Simon and The Tycoon’s Pregnant Mistress.
Hi Maya~
I would love to have this book because it is well written by you, has a fabulous cover, and it sounds amazing!
:worthy:
I’d love to win this book because I love your books and I really need a great book right now…
I really fell in love with Damon when I read Sweet Surrender and I need to something to brighten up my day. Have been lying sick in bed all week. Can I bribe you with chocolate. LOL
I want it early because when one of my favorite authors has a new book coming out I am so NOT good at waiting and I tend to drive people nuts so you would be saving their sanity. :elephant:
Well … I just had 2 eight year olds, 1 nine year old and 1 seven year old over for a birthday sleep-over. There’s purple cake frosting in my carpet, the beds are stripped and everything is on the floor, I just saw my penny jar was dumped on the floor also and it should take about three weeks to clean the ravages of my household.
Man, I deserve a free book. Or prozac.
Thanks for the chance. I would love to read it. I have been dying to read it.
I’ve been waiting for Damon’s book since he first showed up, I’m just really excited for his book
Of course, cause you wrote it and it will add to my Maya Banks collection nicely. Love your books! :whoo:
Love your books – ebooks or print, so look forward to each and every :conscience:one.
Hi Maya!
I never read a book of yours before it came out so I’d love to have a chance to do that, and say that I did, LOL
I want it because Damon was intriguing in Sweet Surrender and because next week is the last week of school here and I want some truly naughty reading to celebrate.
Okay, so since the ante is up, I have to put my 2nds in…….I want DAMON…and yeah, ‘cuz I want to lord over all my book buddies that I’ve got him in my hot little hands before they do!!
:rockthefuckon:

I would so love to win this because you had me hooked on your books since I came across Colters’ Woman. And have been steadily purchasing your backlist to own every one.
Hope it’s not too late to get into the contest as well – I’d love to have this because it sounds totally awesome and I love the genre.
